My aurora map was Number 3 in ‘The Most Popular Maps of 2025’ (from Maps.com )! Here’s what happened when I tested my mapping of ‘the best places to see the Northern Lights’.

Back in March, I wanted to plan a trip to take advantage of the peak in solar activity, which occurs roughly every 11 years. I made a map of ‘aurora score’, taking into account cloudiness, light pollution, and aurora strength (explained in my blog post: https://HKuril.com/0003 ). The map (shown in the last image) indicated that northern Norway was not the best location, as it was likely to be cloudy.

However, I’m always optimistic, so I went ahead. I booked tickets for the Hurtigruten ferry around Europe’s northernmost point (from Bodø to Kirkenes). After exploring Oslo’s lovely harbourside (image 2), including the Munch Museum (3 and 4), I flew over the fjords (5) to Bødo (6) and boarded the ship. Over the next three days, I visited Tromsø (7) and crossed above the tree line into the Arctic Circle. The ship rounded Nordkapp (8) and stopped off in snowbound villages (9) before reaching Kirkenes on the Russian border.

In the end, my own prediction was accurate. It was mostly cloudy. I did see the aurora a couple of times, but the ship was not a great viewing platform, due to bright lights on deck. Nonetheless, it was a wonderful trip.

Uff. Considering going to #Harstad fo a conference in february. From #Oslo.

Problem: I won't fly.

Everything #Vy and #Entur spits out is by night train to Trondheim, but from there on it's a nightmare. Buss for train on parts of the route, mostly bus anyway, I have to change four or five times and the highlight: being stuck for nine hours at Lødingen buss taxi stand over night in midwinter.

#Hurtigruten could be an alternative, but it's way too expensive.

Bonjour,

#PhotOctober2025
Jour 29 : route

Route maritime avec l'Hurtigruten, littéralement traduit en "la route rapide" créée à la fin du XIXe siècle quand c'était nettement plus rapide de passer par la mer que par la terre en Norvège pour transporter les gens, les marchandises, le courrier.
J'ai voyagé 7 fois (de 1999 à 2014) à bord des express côtiers et là, c'était le 18 février 2004, légèrement au nord du cercle polaire, alors que nous naviguons vers le sud et croisons le MS Lofoten, en route vers le nord, après qu'il ait franchi le cercle polaire, il y a environ 1h30… si l'horaire est respecté ;).
